Meaning & History
In the English-speaking world, this is an archaic spelling of WILLIAM, which is sometimes understandably perceived as a modern spelling of the name, due to the current trend of spelling traditional names differently.In Brazil, this is a variant spelling of WILLIAM, which you could perceive to be modern in this case, as this spelling only emerged in Brazil in the last decades (at least as early as the late 1970s).A known bearer of this name was Wylliam Martin, a 16th-century mayor of the city of Galway in Ireland.
